Choose one of the following : **Blogs **Podcasts **Wikis **RSS Feeds **Your Choice ( see http://www.listible.com/list/complete-list-of-web-2-0-products-and-services ) Get together with 3-4 people who have made the same selection as you. Make use of the resources from Rocky’s hard folder, her collection of relevant urls posted on delicious and any other info. you have or can find. Soft and sift through your info. in order to create a presentation that provides a guide for teachers wanting to get started with ’podcasting’. Your guide should provide the following info: ways you might use it yourself and in the classroom, how you would get started, possible issues, someday to Monday . Share this info. in your choice of ways: Rocky’s blog, webnote, slideshow, podcast…. You have : minutes to complete this task. Good Luck !!!! If doing podcasting you may like to create a podcast. If doing blogging you may like to create a blog…
